It is further illustrated below with the procedure chart of liquid measure control method of Fig. 2A~2O and the flow chart of Fig. 3.
In step s105, liquid measure control device 100 as shown in Figure 2 A is provided.The X-direction of diagram is, for example, level side To, and Z-direction is for example vertically oriented.140 controllable driver 130 of controller is in X direction and/or Z-direction is mobile, with driving The first dropper 20 connecting with driver 130 is in X direction and/or Z-direction is mobile.
In step s 110, as shown in Figure 2 B, controller 140 controls the first suction that driver 130 drives the first dropper 20 The detection zone of the end in-position 20d detector 110 is taken, to obtain the end height position H1 of the first suction end 20d.
In the present embodiment, position detector 110 is, for example, contact measurement device, such as limit switch.Position detector 110 Detection zone be, for example, position detector 110 detection faces 110s (showing in fig. 2b).The detection accuracy of position detector 110 E.g. 1 micron, however can also be bigger or even more small, keep the precision of surveyed end height position H1 high, facilitates essence Quasi- control dropper protrudes into the intracorporal depth of liquid.In another embodiment, non-contact detection can also be used in position detector 110 Device, such as optical detector.
The position of the detection zone of position detector 110 is end height position H1.In embodiment, known to controller 140 Height relationships between the detection zone coordinate of position detector 110 and the coordinate of origin O, such as along the relative altitude of Z-direction.Citing For, the coordinate of origin O may be set to (0,0,0), and the detection zone coordinate of position detector 110 may be set to (x, y, H1), Wherein the numerical value of x and y is depending on the position of position detector 110.Controller 140 is sat according to the detection zone of position detector 110 The difference of mark and the Z component numerical value of the coordinate of origin O obtains end height position H1.In the present invention, the position of origin O is not It is limited.For example, origin O can be located on the plane of reference P1 (showing in fig. 2b) for carrying above-mentioned load seat 15.Such as Fig. 2 B institute Show, plane of reference P1 can be a horizontal plane, and test tube 10, position detector 110 and image pick-up device 150 can be positioned at the upper of plane of reference P1 Side.
As shown in Figure 2 B, as the detection faces 110s of the first suction end 20d touch position detector 110, position detector 110 issue a touching signal S1 to controller 140, controller 140 can define first and draw after receiving touching signal S1 The position for holding 20d touch position detector 110 is known end height position H1.In the end for defining the first suction end 20d After height and position H1, controller 140 can be by the first suction end 20d in X direction and/or the amount of movement of Z-direction learns the first suction (current) position after taking end 20d mobile.Driver 130 is, for example, to include at least stepper motor (not shown), can be precisely controlled First suction end 20d in X direction and/or the amount of movement of Z-direction, makes 140 controllable driver 130 of controller by the first suction end 20d is accurately moved to required position, such as protrudes into test tube 10 depth location in liquid L.In one embodiment, driver The displacement accuracy of 130 the first suction end 20d of driving is can be controlled in 0.03 millimeter (mm), however can also be bigger or even more small.
In step sl 15, as shown in Fig. 2 C1 and Fig. 2 C2, image pick-up device 150 obtains the image M1 of liquid L in test tube 10.Such as Shown in Fig. 2 C2, the configuration of test tube 10 is on carrying seat 15, and carrying seat 15 has hollow-out parts 15r, and liquid L reveals from hollow-out parts 15r in test tube 10 Out, image pick-up device 150 is enable to get the image M1 of the liquid level including liquid L.In one embodiment, image pick-up device 150 is, for example, Image of microscope image pick-up device can obtain the image M1 of liquid L in subtleer (resolution ratio is higher) test tube 10.
In step S116, image processor 145 analyzes image M1, to judge the liquid level position H of liquid LL, wherein Liquid level position HLIllustrate by taking liquid level and the height and position (along Z-direction) of opposite origin O as an example.
Then, as shown in Figure 2 D, controller 140 controls the first dropper 20 of driving of driver 130 and is moved to test tube in X direction Right above 10.
In step S117, as shown in Figure 2 E, controller 140 is according to liquid level position HLAnd end height position H1, Control driver 130 drives the first suction end 20d to protrude into first along -Z direction and protrudes into depth h1.First, which protrudes into depth h1, is, for example, From liquid level position HLThe depth extended down along -Z direction.
First to protrude into depth h1 be, for example, a default value.In one embodiment, first depth h1 is protruded into e.g. between 1 milli Rice~3 millimeters between, such depth can avoid the outside wall surface for remaining in the first dropper 20 and/or the liquid L of inner wall is excessive. Specifically, if first to protrude into depth h1 too deep, after the first dropper 20 up leaves liquid level, remain in the first dropper 20 The liquid L of wall surface, which may hang down, to be flow in test tube 10.Due to hanging down, flow is difficult to estimate, causes the surplus of liquid L in test tube 10 non- Expected variation.In another embodiment, the uptake that the first dropper 20 draws liquid L every time can be limited to liquid L in test tube 10 Surplus 10%~20% between, it is same to can avoid similar liquid above-mentioned and hang down flow problem.
As shown in Figure 2 E, the first range for protruding into depth h1 can be between upper limit position HUPWith lower position HLOWBetween, the upper limit Position HUPWith lower position HLOWFor image pick-up device 150 can shooting area.In addition, upper limit position HUPAnd lower position HLOWFor with Illustrate for the height of opposite origin O.
In the step s 120, as shown in Figure 2 F, test tube 10 is drawn by the first dropper 20 in the control of controller 140 side Pu 120 Interior liquid L.The liquid L that first dropper 20 is drawn can pass through the suction at side Pu 120, guidance to the storage outside the first dropper 20 Liquid bath (not shown).
In step s 125, as shown in Figure 2 G, in suction process, the liquid level position of the liquid L in test tube 10 HLEnd height position H lower than the first suction end 20ddBefore, 140 controllable driver 130 of controller drives the first dropper 20 First suction end 20d protrudes into liquid L one second toward -Z direction and protrudes into depth h2 (as shown in Figure 2 G).In this way, can avoid first Suction end 20d suction is (if face height and position HLEnd height position H lower than the first suction end 20dd, the first suction end 20d Air can be drawn onto).In addition, aforesaid end height and position HdTo illustrate by taking the height of opposite origin O as an example.In the first suction end 20d is protruded into down in liquid L during a depth, and liquid L in the sustainable absorption test tube 10 of the first suction end 20d is not needed Stop.In addition, second protrude into depth h2 can from test tube 10 liquid L liquid level start.In one embodiment, second depth is protruded into H2 protrudes into depth h1 with aforementioned first can be identical, however can also be different.Second protrudes into the range of depth h2 between upper limit position HUPWith lower position HLOWBetween, upper limit position HUPWith lower position HLOWFor image pick-up device 150 can shooting area.
In step s 130, as illustrated in figure 2h, test tube 10 is drawn by the first dropper 20 in the control of controller 140 side Pu 120 Interior liquid L.
In one embodiment, in suction process, image processor 145 can analyze image M1 acquired in image pick-up device 150 Learn current fluid level height and position HLAnd end height position Hd, liquid level position H is then judged againLWith the first suction end 20d End height position HdDifference in height △ H whether up to a default measures of dispersion.If it is, the control driving of controller 140 Device 130, which drives the first suction end 20d to protrude into liquid L down and controls side Pu 120 simultaneously, to be continued to draw examination by the first dropper 20 Liquid L in pipe 10;If it is not, then the control of controller 140 side Pu 120 passes through the under the position for maintaining the first suction end 20d One dropper 20 continues to draw liquid L in test tube 10.In addition, aforementioned default measures of dispersion be, for example, between 1 microlitre~3 milliliters, however It can also be greater or lesser.The embodiment of the present invention does not limit the actual numerical value of aforementioned default measures of dispersion.
In step S135, image processor 145 judges whether the surplus of liquid L in test tube 10 is less than middle preset Amount.For example, 140 controllable driver 130 of controller drives the first dropper 20 first to leave the liquid L in test tube 10.Then, image Processor 145 analyzes image M1 acquired in image pick-up device 150, to judge the liquid level position HL of liquid L in test tube 10, then According to liquid level position HL, the surplus of liquid L is obtained, then judges whether surplus reaches target default volume.At image The mode that reason device 145 obtains the surplus of liquid L in test tube 10 is, for example: opposite with liquid level position according to a surplus Relationship (such as equation or table) is arranged in pairs or groups mathematical method (such as interpolation method), and liquid corresponding to current fluid level height and position HL is obtained The surplus of body L.Aforementioned middle preset amount is, for example, between 50 microlitres and 100 microlitres.
When the surplus of liquid L in test tube 10 is no less than middle preset amount (the "No" result of step S135), then process is returned To step S130, controller 140 can be with: (1) continuing control side Pu 120 and draw liquid L in test tube 10 by the first dropper 20; Or (2) control driver 130 drives test tube 10 to protrude into liquid L an appropriate depth again (as liquid level position HL and first The end height position H of suction end 20ddDifference in height △ H when having reached aforementioned default measures of dispersion), then control side Pu 120 is logical The first dropper 20 is crossed to continue to draw the liquid L in test tube 10.
The surplus of liquid L is less than before middle preset amount (the "Yes" result of step S135) in test tube 10, according to examination The primary quantity (before drawing for the first time, as shown in Figure 2 A) of liquid L and each uptake of the first dropper 20 are different in pipe 10, controller 140 can control the first dropper 20 protrude into liquid L in test tube 10 it is primary, secondary or more time.In addition, in one embodiment, the One dropper 20 only can disposably be drawn.Specifically, first is protruded into liquid L in 20 first time of the first dropper protrude into depth After spending h1, liquid L in test tube 10 can be directly drawn, until suction or is drawn to the liquid L of predetermined amount.Then, process enters step Rapid S140 starts to carry out minim suction step.In addition, if the test tube known to controller 140 before the first dropper 20 enters liquid L The liquid level position of liquid L in 10, then process can omit the image processing step of step S115, S116.
When the surplus of liquid L in test tube 10 is less than middle preset amount (the "Yes" result of step S135), then process enters Step S140.
In step S140, as shown in figure 2i, controller 140 controls driver 130 and the first dropper 20 is driven to leave test tube 10.Drive the first dropper 20 mobile toward +Z direction for example, controller 140 controls driver 130, to leave test tube 10 completely, and Drive the first dropper 20 mobile toward -X direction, until being located at right above position detector 110.
Then, as shown in fig. 2j, user can replace the first dropper 20 as shown in figure 2i with the second dropper 30.Second drop The caliber d1 (caliber d1 is shown in Fig. 2 I) of the caliber d2 of pipe 30 and the first dropper 20 can be different.In the present embodiment, second The caliber d2 of dropper 30 so can be more accurately to draw liquid L in test tube 10 microly less than the caliber d1 of the first dropper 20 The final surplus of liquid L is close to or up to a target surplus in control test tube 10.In one embodiment, liquid in test tube 10 The surplus of L is can be controlled in the error range of microlitre grade, such as ± 1 μ l, however can also be bigger or even more small.In addition, Can the uptake each according to the first dropper 20 determine the caliber d1 of the first dropper 20, and the absorption each according to the second dropper 30 Measure the caliber d2 for determining the second dropper 30.
The embodiment of the present invention is not limited the caliber d1 of the first dropper 20 and/or the caliber d2 of the second dropper 30. For example, the caliber d1 of the first dropper 20 is about between 2 times to 7 times of the range of the caliber d2 of the second dropper 30.In another example first Each uptake of dropper 20 is about between 350 times to 625 times of range of each uptake of the second dropper 30.Implement one In example, the caliber d1 of the first dropper 20 be, for example, between 10mm and 15mm or between 11.6mm and 12.3mm, and The each uptake of first dropper 20 can be between 4 milliliters (ml) and 5 milliliters.The caliber d2 of second dropper 30 be, for example, between Between 2mm and 5mm or between 2.5mm and 2.7mm, and each uptake of the second dropper 30 can be between 8 microlitres (μ l) Between 12 microlitres.In addition, the length L2 (being shown in Fig. 2 J) of the length L1 (being shown in Fig. 2 I) of the first dropper 20 and the second dropper 30 It can be identical or different.
